WHY BUY PROPERTY IN THE ALGARVE

The allure of the Algarve is timeless.
It continues to offer the safest and most attractive conditions for those wishing to buy in the sun.
The climate is one of the healthiest and most pleasant in the world. Winters are never too cold and summers never too hot. A real paradise for golfers all year long with more than 30 Golf Courses along the cost and inland.
The environment is much less spoilt and pollued than in other European Countries.
The nation's constitution and weel-founded legal system give foreign buyers and property owners the same fundamental rights and protection as those enjoyed by Portuguese citizens. Also new legislation has even abolished inheritance tax for family members and tax on house purchases has been slashed (exemption untill 87.500,00€).
The cost of living is considerably less than other European destinations. Inexpensive restaurant bills and absurdly low price of wines and spirits make dining out the norm.
The only thing completely missing here that you may find in sunny places such as Italy, Spain, France, Greece, Florida or the Carribean are hurricanes, sweltering summers, pollution, floods or high crime rates.
